capturing nature

Recently I went with my friend, Susan, to Arbor Hills Nature Preserve simply to capture some nature. She's learning the SLR photography ropes, I like to use my camera (a lot), and we both like nature. It was an incredibly hot day, but we both enjoyed trying to document the beauty we saw with our eye.

I love capturing sunbursts. Hint: to capture a sunburst, set your aperture pretty small. The photo below was f/32.

Ah, so love photographing nature.

Great photos and good tip on the sunburst. I would love to go photographing with you and pick up a few tips in person! :) But in the meantime this is a great reminder to change the settings on my camera every once in a while!! :) LOL!
